| Introduction | Margaret and Ken Cook live in rural Elgin County on a small two acre farm. We keep Rhode Island Reds and Plymouth Barred Rock chickens for eggs and entertainment. We also have many gardens for vegetables and many fruit trees. We will be adding quails, Chantecler's, pheasants, a couple of pigs, some sheep and a goat for grass control, expanding the gardens and putting in more fruit trees. Margaret & Ken are living as close to 1865 as we possibly can in our modern world. In doing this we learn how better to be sustainable and what life was truly like during the Victorian era here in Upper Canada. We hope to encourage others to live perhaps at least some of the time in the quiet gentle world without artificial sound and light. And enjoy the peace of self entertainment and reliance...so please join us in our travels as we work to best emulate this time period and learn what has been so forgotten in our modern world. Ask us questions and visit us when you are able... |
